The FlightScope Mevo+ 2023 Edition is a mid-priced launch monitor that sits above the budget that many recreational golfers will be willing to spend, yet well below that of the most premium models on the market, including FlightScope's own X3 - the choice of Bryson DeChambeau. Not everyone is particularly interested in swing data, particularly the deep dive technical stuff that most casual (and many serious) golfers don’t understand anyway. Being able to record your swing and have all the relevant data overlaid onto a video that you can send to your friends or post to social media is just a really cool thing though. It’s also pretty damn useful as it allows you to chart your progress in a way that’s more entertaining than just looking at a load of numbers. Seeing your swing with all the data overlaid on top of the video just seems a lot less boring for the casual golfer. If you are seeing your MLM change from green>blue>green but no data is appearing, please see the below steps to ensure proper set up and alignment: A: Through Rapsodo’s partnership with Callaway, Rapsodo specially engineered balls using Rapsodo Precision Technology (RPT). The custom designed Callaway RPT Chrome Soft X Golf Balls deliver the ultimate golf experience by providing spin measurements within 1% of the accuracy of high-priced launch monitors.

Speaking of which portability is an important factor in itself. You don't want to have to be lugging something heavy around or something that takes too long to fold away. In terms of the data recorded, you will have access to carry distance, club head speed, ball speed, smash factor, apex, launch angle and launch direction. The MLM is at its best when used outdoors on a range or the course but you can use it indoors with a net. Shot tracer will not work when hitting into a net but you will get all of the usual data you would get outside as the MLM uses Doppler Radar technology to calculate results.The GC Quad is portable and convenient with no need for time-consuming calibration thanks to its in-built accelerometer, and as you would expect, provides powerful data analysis and visualization.

Foresight’s own FSX Play software allows users to play some of the most famous courses in the world with true-to-life graphics which really make you feel like you are out there on the course. This product is incredible and rivals launch monitors that cost thousands of dollars! I have used all of the primary competitors and the MLM2PRO is just as accurate at a fraction of the cost. It is incredible to see shot vision and impact vision after a range session, along with the range session insights. I used to just go to the range without a plan and mindlessly beat balls for an hour, but the Rapsodo units have allowed me to get so much more out of practice sessions. Q: Will I get spin rate and spin axis if I use a regular golf ball instead of the Callaway RPT balls?

Are you going to be using the monitor inside or outside? If you look to focus on the former then investing in a proper setup may be the way to go whilst if you want to use a monitor outside then something convenient and portable is a better call.

The RPT balls work great and I like that they’re premium golf balls. I really wish they could be cheaper and/or have 2 sleeves included with the yearly membership. Not only does the launch monitor have to be clear in displaying data, but you the player needs to have some understanding of what those numbers mean. FAQs Are portable launch monitors worth it?We cannot stress enough how convenient this monitor and for such a small - and well priced - launch monitor, the PRGR gathers a decent amount of data. The device gives you data on swing speed, ball speed, carry distance, total distance and smash factor. For us, this was just the right amount - not too much to overwhelm and not so little it's pointless. Sure there are more comprehensive devices out there, but not at this price point. Offers four-speed slow-motion replay, club-fitting performance charts, and virtual competitions and games Rapsodo recently launched their 'Insights’ feature which is essentially a more in depth way of collating all of your shot information. It will analyse all of your shot data and compile reports on each area of your game along with tips on the areas that need improvement and how you can do it. You can store up to 100 shots in the free version, but by upgrading to premium it allows you to build a library of thousands of shots. Personally I don’t see any reason why you would need more than the hundred, but each to their own. We love the normative profiling feature that will provide you with a benchmark of your best statistics from each club, allowing you to objectively measure your performance against similar shots played by different standards of golfer - it's a great way to maintain motivation and provide an incentive to practice.
